Kiefer Sutherland 粉丝 are used to seeing him over the course of "24" hours -- now the actor is stepping into the world of 140 characters as a presenter at the 3rd Annual Shorty Awards later this 月 in New York.
Sutherland, the Ministry has learned exclusively, will 加入 already-named presenters Jerry Stiller and Anne Meara, Stephen Wallem of "Nurse Jackie," Miss USA Rima Fakih and Miss Teen USA Kamie Crawford; Aasif Mandvi of "The Daily Show" will host the ceremony. The Shortys (think Oscars, Emmys, Golden Globes -- but for Twitter) recognize the best producers of short real-time content.
Golden Globe winner Sutherland, currently appearing with Chris Noth, Jason Patric and Jim Gaffigan in "That Championship Season" on old-media Broadway and tweeting as @RealKiefer, is going new media himself this 月 with a 10-part Web series for Hulu. "The Confession" stars Sutherland and John Hurt in a good-and-evil story featuring a hit man and a priest. Anyone really need three guesses to figure out who's playing the hit man? (If yes, see the video above.)
Shorty nominations, done via Twitter, have delivered finalists in 30 official categories that look distinctly different than those on other award shows -- and that's before 你 get to the many community-generated categories. Just take a look at the finalists for actor, actress and celebrity, listed with their Twitter names:

The 爱情 of Larry Stylinson is something that we like to think can never be shaken, but it must be hard for Louis Tomlinson to have to share his time with Harry Styles with a load of girls. We know he must want him all to himself, so he can stroke his face and smell his hair alone.
It's a tough life for Louis.
"The worst thing about living with Harry is the constant stream of women he is getting through our door," Louis told The Sun.
"It's relentless.
"The good side is he's a decent cook. He cooks for me — fajitas and tacos.
"The fajitas are good, they are very good."
Louis Tomlinson: "Harry Styles is always bringing girls round"
Well this is promising. A surefire way to a bloke's 心 is to go through the stomach (as in with food, not with knives...eesh) so at least Louis is still getting some guac(amole) from Harry and can chow down on his fajita every now and again.
